Natural Convection in Composite Fluid-Porous Domains provides a timely overview of the current
state of understanding on the phenomenon of convection in composite fluid-porous layers.
Natural convection in horizontal fluid-porous layers has received renewed attention because of
engineering problems such as post-accident cooling of nuclear reactors contaminant transport
in groundwater and convection in fibrous insulation systems. Because applications of the
problem span many scientific domains the book serves as a valuable resource for a wide
audience.
